    摘要: Access switches in a switching system may use virtual aggregated links. When a link between an aggregation switch and an access switch fails, the link failure may be reflected in the virtual aggregated link and data traffic to another access switch may be switched away from the failed switch. A forwarding table in the access switch stores a number of entries that each define a correspondence between destination addresses and an output identifier for the switch. At least a first output identifier includes an aggregated link that represents a first set of possible output links. At least a second output identifier includes a virtual aggregated link, associated with a second network switch that represents a second set of possible output links. Destination addresses in the forwarding table for the virtual aggregated link correspond to network devices connected to the second network switch.

    摘要: In general, techniques are described in which a plurality of network switches automatically configure themselves to operate as a single virtual network switch. A virtual switch is a collection of individual switch devices that operate like as single network switch. As described herein, network switches in a network that are capable of participating in a virtual switch may automatically discover one another. The participating network switches may then elect one of the participating switches as a master switch. The master switch may generate forwarding information and store the forwarding information in the participating switches, including the master switch. The forwarding information causes the participating switches to act like a single network switch.

    摘要: A device receives network traffic and bypass traffic, performs a first weighting operation on the network traffic and the bypass traffic to produce weighted network traffic and weighted bypass traffic, performs a second weighting operation on the weighted network traffic and the weighted bypass traffic to produce additionally weighted traffic, and transmits the additionally weighted traffic based on weights assigned by the second weighting operation.

    摘要: A bus arbitration system and method allocates total bus bandwidth between latency sensitive and latency insensitive interfaces by utilizing windows to divide the total bandwidth into latency sensitive and latency insensitive portions. Each interface is initially allocated top-up numbers of latency sensitive and latency insensitive tokens to proportionally allocate bus accesses between the interfaces according to their requirements. For an interface having access to the bus, the number of tokens is decremented for each successful bus transfer.

    摘要: A system may include a switchover element configurable to source or sink power from or to an electronic device electrically coupled to the switchover element and a controller in communication with the switchover element. The controller may be configured to determine if the electronic device is healthy. When the electronic device is healthy, the controller may configure the switchover element to deliver power from the electronic device to the system and configure the switchover element to provide the power to any unhealthy electronic device electrically coupled to the system.

    摘要: In general, the invention is directed to techniques of identifying an infected network device in a computer network where traffic to and from the infected network device is not necessarily routed through a single point on the computer network. For example, individual line cards in network devices count incoming network flows from network devices in host tables. The host tables of all line cards of all participating network devices are then correlated. It is then determined whether the number of flows from a network device outweighs the number of flows to the network device to a significant degree. If so, the network device may be considered suspicious. Packets from a suspicious network device may be rerouted to a network security device for more thorough inspection.
